Obamacare increases are only going to get worse
Finding out what’s in it: After Obamacare`s government help for insurance companies ends and consumers have bear the full cost of this monstrous law, the costs will skyrocket again.
By 2023, I estimate that the average family plan could be 61% more expensive than it is in 2015, with individual plans only one or two percentage points behind. These increases are so high that direct taxpayer subsidies to consumers are unlikely to keep up. So the cost, both financially and politically, will become increasingly intolerable.
Thank you Obama and the Democratic Party for bringing us this present. We couldn`t have done it without you!
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Sort of like the way collage costs keep just ahead of government subsidies.
Another socialist idea disproven by a simple thing like human greed.
Does political malfeasance have a statute of limitation? If not, is there a provision allowing claw-backs exacted from decades of ex-politicians that sold our country out?

Obama and whom ever supports or allows what ever he has done or will do to happen is complicit and should be seen as a traitor to the oath that they have taken. Right in every Americans face, in plain sight. Obamas top advisor is Valarie Jarrett, born in Shiraz Iran. Hillary Clinton’s top advisore / assistant is Huma Abadin, Muslim.
SALEHA MAHMOOD ABEDIN, mother of Huma Ababin
Pro-Sharia
Mother of Huma Abedin and Hassan Abedin
Longtime affiliate of the the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs
Board member of the International Islamic Council for Dawa and Relief
Director of the International Islamic Committee for Woman and Child
Founding member of the Muslim Sisterhood, the women’s division of the Muslim Brotherhood
Does no one / Democrat / Liberal see what is plain to see? Obama intends to finance Iran to the beginning tune of 150 BILLION dollars! Supply them with the technology to detect and repel IT attacks on its system! Ensures / no guarantees that Iran will have nukes within 10 years.
The American people have created the means of their own destruction?
Im insane?
“Thank you Obama and the Democratic Party for bringing us this present. We couldn`t have done it without you!” We also WOULDN’T have done it without you

Donald Trump is not backing off of his insult to John McCain, and I say good for him. McCain, McConnell, Boehner, Prebis, and many of the rest of them badly need to be retired for the sake of our country and the future of every American. They are captives of a perverted system and are unable to do the work that the American people need them to do. Everyone should be outraged that they have allowed this president to go so far down the socialist / leftist road.

Love him or loath him he says what needs to be said, what many of the American people are thinking, and he has no apology for anyone. And that is what this country needs. We will see where this all goes but I believe Trump is very serious this time and will become very hard to stop if he is able to keep this up until next year. There is only one Republican candidate that anyone is talking about and that is Trump. They are all waiting for him to either shoot himself in the foot (but it looks like he is wearing Kevlar boots) or they are waiting for someone to come forward with some damaging information about his business dealings.
Love him or loath him it looks like he is serious and is in for the long haul. Comments?
Perhaps there could be a separate forum for unrelated posts.
Its not “unrelated”, its Unrelated but Related. In other words, it is related. Politics is relevant to Obamacare and this story is about politics and about Obamacare. I would see your point if my comment was posted on a story about the sun, for example.
